Shakespeare Martineau LLP’s Birmingham-based family offering is well-rehearsed in the negotiation of complex, high-value, acrimonious, and often multijurisdictional financial remedies and other instructions related to the finances and children of married and cohabiting couples. The group is led by ‘genuine force’ Aasha Choudhary, and includes Monica Ghai, who handles child and financial remedy matters with culturally complex elements, and ’skillful technician’ Robert Norris, who comes highly recommended for high-risk child law issues, high-net-worth divorce, and wealth protection agreements. Deanna Phillips-Mills is another key team member.
